Two more strange CI images with unknown streaks. One followed the other by about 25 minutes. Here they are:

and

The brightness of the left is just the Moon. The streaks are better seen with lower contrast FITS images:

They are very close to the moon. We have seen some artifacts near the moon, but these are different.
